Gates

In ancient cities, the gate of the city is where the action was. Business was conducted there, trials were conducted there, and of course, people were granted or denied entry to the city there. Likewise we have gates to our mind that allow or deny certain thoughts, we put others on trial and conduct business all depending on what principles we put at our gates. What principles are running your gates?
